Sportsman’s Association Of Greensburg All those KIDS! Mas: “Today, Jack got me loaded in the truck early in the morning. We didn’t bring Babe along. She still stays home with the puppies. He didn’t say much, but we stopped for coffee, the way we always do. After a short drive, we got to the SAG grounds. This should be interesting! Jack talked to the guys at...
August 5, 2012 Hunt Test Results
Warrior’s Mark Wing Shooting Lodge The Weekend Wrap Up Mas: “What a weekend! The SWPAHRC put on a great hunt test, really, a great hunt test. But not an easy one! On Saturday, I was pretty good. All that sit-to-the-flush practice that Jack put me through paid off. I was rock solid – not even a slight break or creep. All together, between marks and blinds, I had to pick up eight birds. The trail put me at nine birds to...
August 1, 2012 Test Prep
SWPAHRC Training Grounds Tune Up Mas: “Well, I told you that this weekend was the 20th Anniversary NAHRA test sponsored by the SWPAHRC. Tonight, we had our last training night before the big event.

July 30, 2012 View from a Hunting Lab
Home Lots going on! Mas: “We’ve had a busy few days around here. The Katie and John kids were here and they brought another smaller version called Sarah. I think it’s the human example of a puppy. Nice enough, I guess, but if you’re a hunting lab, not all that interesting. The Sunday training day at Sportman’s Association of Greensburg? Now, that was an interesting day. Jack only had one thing on his mind. ...

Home Mmmmmmm! The Lady: “The puppies are getting older and bigger and it’s time to help Babe out a bit. Tonight, we tried something new: food! After some research and a big assist from Michelle (Thank you!), we were ready to begin. Jack had ordered feeding saucers. We put some puppy chow in the blender and pulverized it, then added water to soften it. A little bit of goat’s milk and a drop of Karo went into the blender to...
July 25, 2012 Warriors Mark
Warrior’s Mark Training Day Mas: “Jack loaded up the truck, including the buggy. The buggy always means fun is on the menu. When the truck stopped, some of my best friends were there along with their humans. Looks like a training day! There was upland hunting, there were triples, there were blinds, and best of all, there were live birds. Nothing makes a hunting Lab happier than the sweet aroma of chukars. Too bad there were no...
